Urologist Jobs in West Des Moines, IA

A Urologist is a specialist in the medical field who deals with diseases and conditions affecting the urinary tract in both males and females, and the reproductive system in males. The professional's work includes diagnosing, treating, and managing patients with urological disorders. Their expertise covers a wide range of issues including kidney stones, urinary tract infections, bladder control problems, and prostate issues. Urologists also perform surgeries such as vasectomies or prostatectomies, and may work closely with other specialists such as oncologists and nephrologists.

Prior to becoming a Urologist, a professional typically needs to have experience in roles such as a General Physician or a Resident in Surgery or Internal Medicine. They must possess strong skills in patient care, diagnosis, and decision making, as well as a deep understanding of medical ethics and patient rights. They also need to be certified, with the certification process including an undergraduate degree, medical school, a urology residency, and often, additional fellowship training in a urological subspecialty. Some Urologists may choose to specialize further in areas such as male infertility or pediatric urology.
